Ep 14. Jag-Jitsu

Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for Jag-Jitsu! The highly-anticipated martial arts tournament is coming to town, and everyone is excited to see who will emerge as the champion. For our enterprising heroes, Lex, Presley, and Munchy, it's the perfect opportunity to make some extra cash by selling Jag-Jitsu merchandise.

With Lex's graphic design skills, Presley's salesmanship, and Munchy's creative ideas, they quickly come up with a variety of products to sell, from t-shirts and hats to foam fingers and bandanas. However, they run into some unexpected problems along the way. For one thing, their supplier suddenly disappears, leaving them without the materials they need to make their products. For another, their booth is located in a less-than-optimal spot, away from the rest of the vendors and barely visible to the crowds.

Despite these setbacks, our intrepid trio refuses to give up. Using their ingenuity and resourcefulness, they come up with inventive solutions to every problem that arises. When their supplier falls through, they decide to gather materials from the local craft store and improvise their designs. When they realize no one can see their booth, they come up with a clever advertising scheme involving a giant, inflatable Jag-Jitsu mascot.

As they sell their merchandise throughout the day, they also manage to witness some of the exciting matches taking place in the tournament. They marvel at the skill of one fighter in particular, a mysterious and enigmatic figure known only as The Jaguar. With lightning-fast reflexes, incredible agility, and devastating strikes, The Jaguar seems unbeatable.

However, as the tournament progresses, Lex, Presley, and Munchy begin to notice something strange about The Jaguar. Despite demolishing every opponent he faces, he never seems to take any pleasure or satisfaction in his victories. Instead, he wears a mask of cold detachment, as if the fights mean nothing to him.

Intrigued by this mystery, our heroes decide to investigate. They follow The Jaguar after one of his matches and discover him locking himself in a private room, where he appears to be studying some sort of ancient text. After a bit of snooping, they manage to glimpse the text themselves and are shocked to see that it contains instructions for a deadly form of martial arts known as Jag-Jitsu.

As they delve deeper into the mystery, they discover that The Jaguar is actually a master of Jag-Jitsu and that he is using the tournament as a way to draw out other practitioners of the art. His plan is to defeat them all and eliminate Jag-Jitsu from the world entirely, believing it to be too dangerous and destructive for anyone to use.

Lex, Presley, and Munchy are torn. On one hand, they understand The Jaguar's concerns and agree that Jag-Jitsu can indeed be incredibly dangerous. On the other hand, they see how much joy and passion the other fighters have for the art and can't bear the thought of it being destroyed forever.

In the end, they come up with a plan to stop The Jaguar from achieving his goal. They challenge him to a three-on-one match, with the condition that if they win, he must spare Jag-Jitsu and allow it to continue. The Jaguar accepts, confident in his abilities, but is ultimately defeated by the creative and unconventional techniques of Lex, Presley, and Munchy.

After the fight, The Jaguar admits that he was wrong to try and eliminate Jag-Jitsu and agrees to let it continue, but only under the condition that its practitioners use it responsibly and always remember its potential for destruction. With that, the tournament comes to an end and our heroes pack up their booth, feeling proud of their contributions to the event. As they walk away, they can't help but wonder what other exciting and unusual adventures their side hustle will take them on next...
